Jerry and the others didn't expect that at all.
They wondered why Nolan wasn't asking who they were or what they wanted. Nolan just opened the door and returned to the living room without saying anything. They were utterly confused about what was going on.
Jerry entered the house with his four bodyguards and looked at Nolan with a frown. "Do you know us?"
The latter shook his head and calmly said, "No."
Jerry chuckled. "In that case, why did you let us in without asking anything about us?"
Nolan glanced at him and said, "Are you not going to tell me yourself if I'm not asking? Why should I waste my breath when you're the one who came looking for me?
"That's enough. Since you're here, just get to the point. It doesn't seem like you're here in peace, so that means you're here to cause trouble. In that case, let's just skip the formalities and get straight to the point."
Jerry had never seen anyone like Nolan before, and he was getting more interested in the latter now.
He took a seat in front of Nolan and smiled at him. "You're interesting, and I like you. Alright. Let's just talk. Where's Mr. Norwich Senior?"
Jerry went straight to the point and asked about Henry's whereabouts. Just like Walter from before, the whole Norwich family wouldn't even dare to ignore Henry's existence.
"Have you been drinking too much?"
Upon hearing that, Jerry frowned a little. "What do you mean? Why would I be drinking in the morning?"
Nolan answered, "Oh. Since you've not been drinking, you must be out of your mind. Although I have some medical skills, I can't cure an idiot with no brains. You should just visit a psychiatrist. If you don't know how to get there, I can get you the address."
After hearing that, Jerry was infuriated immediately. Nolan was clearly making fun of him!
"Damn it, you brat! How dare you call me an idiot!" As he said that, he slammed his hand hard on the table, making a loud noise.
